What is PCO Car Hire?
PCO car hire means renting a vehicle that is fully licensed by London’s Public Carriage Office (PCO) for use as a private hire vehicle (PHV). This is the licence required to drive for Uber, Bolt, Freenow, Ola and other rideshare companies in the capital.
With Rapid, you don’t just get a car — you get a reliable partner to hundreds of private hire drivers who entrust us with their PCO car rental needs.

Who Can Hire a PCO Car in London?
If you hold a valid PCO licence and are ready to drive with Uber, Bolt, Ola, or other ride-hailing and delivery platforms, you can rent a PCO vehicle with us. New drivers are welcome – our team will help with the paperwork so you can get started quickly on the roads.
Are tyres and windscreens covered?
At Rapid PCO, we ensure your car rental is maintained to manufacturer’s standards from start to finish. We organise all routine servicing and maintenance, including arranging MOTs and replacing worn-out tyres. You are responsible, however, for repairing or replacing tyres after punctures.
What happens if I receive a PCN?
If a penalty charge notice is received whilst you are renting the vehicle, we shall attempt to transfer liability of the charge notice to you. Where this is not possible, for example a bus lane contravention, we will charge you the full value. This does not affect your right to challenge the contravention but mitigates the cost from increasing. We will also charge a £20 penalty charge processing fee for each charge notice received and processed.

Our deposits start from as low as £25. In general, a deposit on a Rapid PCO car hire ranges from £350-500 plus an additional week’s hire in advance.
